The Disney movie Fantasia is at the Bass Hall tonight with music by the Fort Worth Symphony. Any time Fantasia comes to a theater or a symphony hall, I always remember a conversation from sometime back in the late 1970s.
Elizabeth, who was married to my very good friend Bob. She met Bob, got married and had a couple of kids. One day, a door to door Mormon missionary knocked on her door and converted her. Before this time Elizabeth was a true flower child of the 1960s. But I only knew her a converted Mormon.
Fantasia was coming to town and they were taking the kids She confided to me that she dropped acid (LSD) just before seeing the movie a few years before Bob and the kids. This was not an uncommon activity for a flower child from the 1960s.
If you attend the show tonight watch out for those silver haired former hippie/flower children. They might be in an altered state of mind.
